The Domino® Web server in a cluster reads the Server document to find the host name of the ICM. The Web server then generates URLs that refer to the ICM. The ICM accepts and processes all URLs supported by the Domino Web server.

The supported URLs include ones that do the following:

• Open servers, databases, and views
• Open forms, navigators, and agents
• Open, edit, and delete documents
• Open documents by name from a view
• Open image files, attachments, and OLE objects
• Create search queries

• If a URL includes a path, the ICM may not be able to resolve this URL to a single database because multiple servers could contain a database with the same path and file name but with different replica IDs. When this occurs, the ICM displays a list of the possible databases from which the user can choose the correct database.
• If a URL includes a replica ID, the ICM may not be able to resolve this URL to a single database if there are multiple replicas of the database on a server, as could be the case with selective replicas. When this occurs, the ICM redirects the client request to a server that contains at least one replica of the requested database, and the Web server selects the replica to present to the user. To access a specific replica, users must specify the path of the replica.
• If a URL includes a NoteID, the ICM may give incorrect results when processing the URL. This is because an object's NoteID may not be the same in all replicas. Unlike a NoteID, a Notes® object name and universal ID are identical in all replicas of a database.
